This is the long road to a question about grips. I just purchased a Ruger SP101 and a set of Hogue grips. I got them home and immediately tried putting on the Hogues. Dammit if that little bracket would not line up with the hole at the bottom of the grips. I could not get the screw to connect with the bracket and when it did I couldn't get the thread to catch. Moreover, I broke a sweat trying to get the grips to seat properly on the frame. There was just no fitting them on.
I took them to the shop this morning and two salesmen worked for close to thirty minutes to get the darn grips onto the gun. In the end we gave up. The shop refunded my money and I went back to the stock grips.
Now, I like the stock grips. They're pretty comfortable. But I like something that fills my hand a little more. Finger grooves are nice too. Aside from Pachmayr are there any other options for me?
By the way. I put just under 100 rounds through the sp101 this morning. ME LIKEY!!
Thanks.
